Hello all,
I am a recent convert from metrics to my first Harley. a 97 1200 XLH. First time I got my heels on the highway pegs I knew I was hooked. Had a Suzuki VX800 last but got hit. Car driver didn't hear me next to him. They can hear me now, and I love the comfort of riding at any speed. Not feeling driven to go faster to feel good. forward controls are next goal. Dreaming of a new Street Glide (Of course). I ride 2 up 60% of the time. Training the lady to ride on the Zuki before she gets the sporty. I live in Washington state and really enjoy the roads around here more nowadays.
